Can you stay? once more come ‘round come hie come lie once more if you could but stay I will give only silence just to hear your sigh soft breath memories of soft talk if you would but stay close here take me back to the time when nothing mattered you were mine I was yours now it’s gone past the tears of today can you stay? I thought not You’re on your way towards a yesterday and there’ll be no me in your poetry Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

take me back to the time when nothing mattered you were mine I was yours now it’s gone past the tears of today can you stay? ========= Past the tears of today and on his way back to yesterday.........I must say that you have such a wonderous way of penning intensity in a poem. Loved it much even between the lines of burden. |

When you're really good - you more than that by far - this has so many phrases of such great intensity and imagery - I won't try to quote them all here - suffice to say this is magnificent! |

take me back to the time when nothing mattered you were mine I was yours now it’s gone past the tears of today ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SUNSHINE, my dear, the above quote from your poem just echoes thru my soul... And as you already know from the praise you receive on your writing you truly weave a poem with IMMENSE intensity that goes beyond just eloquent words it's as though a soul speaks in hush of whisper thru a page or screen it's indcredible but sometimes I can sense a breath or soft sigh under each word you pen... I dunno maybe it's the caffine and lack of sleep nah it's you sweetie your way with poetry is soooooooooooooo sweet I adore it... coco |

Interloper, you are making me blush...thank you... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
